Once again my request is NOT so much spelling as it is I don't want to MISS LINKS. That's it.

RW rocks.
Well as noted earlier in this thread, I did provide a link to an external program that does what you are describing, without relying on LWD to divert from their current course....

Just as RW is not intended to be a VTT, its not intended to replace your preferred word processor either.

You might find this free ware does what you need. I have tested it with in RW and it works fine....
Note, the default for the word list is the left shift key ,I being left handed find this abit annoying, so I changed it to the arrow down when wanting to view the list to choose from. As Gord has suggested, it also allows you to define your own words as well.
